You can do ribs in an oven, too- I cook mine for 3.5 hours at 290 covered in aluminum foil without BBQ sauce, then cover with BBQ sauce for the final 30 minutes (same temperature). Absolutely falls off the ribs. If your deer is fat enough (like a whitetailed doe), then this recipe is good for deer, too. Great thing about deer ribs is that the meat pulls back pretty far along the bone, so you have something to grab while devouring.
